• If you get ink in your eyes, immediately wash
your eyes with a lot of clean water for at least
15 minutes. In doing so, also wash eyes to
rinse ink away completely. Then, consult a
doctor as soon as possible.
• If anyone drinks ink by mistake, keep him or
her quiet and see a doctor immediately. Do not
allow him or her to swallow the vomit.
Then contact the emergency number written in
MSDS.
• If you inhale a lot of vapor and feel bad,
immediately move to a location of fresh air
and then keep yourself warm and quiet. Then,
consult a doctor as soon as possible.
• Store ink cartridges in a place that is out of the
reach of children.
• If the ink adheres to your skin, use a large
amount of water and soap or special detergent
for skin to remove the ink.
CAUTION
Warning
Clump lever
• Never raise the lever during printing. Raising the lever will
abort printing.
Protection of media from dust
• Store media in a bag. Wiping off dust accumulated on media
will adversely affect the media due to static electricity.
• When leaving the workshop after the working hours, do not
leave any media on the roll hanger. If any media is left on the
roll hanger, it can get dusty.
Periodic replacement parts
• Some parts of this machine must be replaced with a new
one periodically by service personnel. Be sure to make a
contract with your distributor or dealer for After sale service
to ensure a long life of your machine.
Disposition of this machine
• Consult your sales or service representative for proper
disposal of this machine. Otherwise, commission an
industrial waste disposal company.
Protection of media from dust
• Store media in a bag. Wiping off dust accumulated on media
will adversely affect the media due to static electricity.
• When leaving the workshop after the working hours, do not
leave any media on the roll hanger. If any media is left on the
roll hanger, it can get dusty.
Handling of ink cartridges
• The safety evaluation of this machine assumes that the ink
recommended by this company is used. For safe usage of
this machine, use the ink recommend by this company
• Never refill the ink pack and white ink cartridge with ink.
Refilled ink cartridge can cause a trouble. Remember that
MIMAKI assumes no responsibility for any damage caused
by the use of the ink cartridge replenished with ink.
• If the ink cartridge is moved from a cold place to a warm
place, leave it in the room temperature for three hours or
more before using it.
• Open the ink cartridge just before installing it in the machine.
If it is opened and left for an extended period of time, normal
printing performance of the machine may not be ensured.
• Make sure to store ink cartridges in a cool and dark place.
• Store ink cartridges and waste ink bottle in a place that is out
of the reach of children.
• Be sure to thoroughly consume the ink in the ink cartridge,
once it is opened, within three months. If an extended period
of time has passed away after opening the cartridge tank,
printing quality would be poor.
• Neither pound the cartridge nor shake it violently, as doing
so can cause leakage of ink.
• Do not touch or stain the contacts of the ink cartridge, as
doing so may cause damage to the print circuit board.
• Consult your sales or service representative for proper
disposal of ink cartridge, ink pack, and waste ink.
When you dispose them by yourself, follow the regulations
stipulated by the industrial waste disposer or the country or
region you live in

Cautions on Installation
Safety interlock
This machine is equipped with interlocks to terminate the
operation for your safety when the cover opens during
printing etc. (red circle parts in the figure below).
Protection of media from dust
• Store media in a bag. Wiping off dust accumulated on media
will adversely affect the media due to static electricity.
• When leaving the workshop after the working hours, do not
leave any media on the roll hanger. If any media is left on the
roll hanger, it can get dusty.
Notes on maintenance
• It is strongly recommended to use the machine in a room
that is not dusty.
• Keep the front cover closed even when the machine is not
printing. If not, dust can accumulate on the nozzles in the
heads.
• Dust in the heads can also cause drops of ink to fall
suddenly down on the media during printing. In such a case,
be sure to clean up the heads. ( P.5-10)
• When cleaning the ink-station or the heads, make sure to
wear the attached gloves. Further, when the solvent ink is
used, it is necessary to wear the attached goggles.
• Perform wiping (removal of dust and paper powder) of the
capping station and wiper frequently.
Handling of media
• Use media recommended by MIMAKI to ensure reliable,
high-quality printing.
• Set the heater temperature to meet the characteristics of the
media. (Model with a built-in heater)
Set the temperature of the Pre-heater, Print heater and Post-
heater according to the type and characteristics of the media
used. Automatic temperature setting can be made on the
operation panel by setting the profile on the dedicated RIP.
For setting on the RIP, refer to the instruction manual for
your RIP.
• Pay attention to the expansion and contraction of the media.
Do not use media immediately after unpacking. The media
can be affected by the room temperature and humidity, and
thus it may expand and contract.The media have to be left in
the atmosphere in which they are to be used for 30 minutes
or more after unpacked.
• Do not use curled media.
The use of curled media can not only cause a media jam but
also affect print quality.
Straighten the sheet of media, if significantly curled, before
using it for printing. If a regular-sized coated sheet of media
is rolled and stored, the coated side has to face outside.
• Do not leave the media with the heater ON for a long time.
